3. Implementing the DDR Treeview Menu

In this tutorial we demonstrate how to use the DDR Menu by DNN Garden in your DotNetNuke skins.

The DDR Menu can be used in several ways, it can be simply dropped in as a direct upgrade replacement of the SolPart and DNN Nav Menus without having to recode all of your skin CSS.

The menu can use pre-built templates which provide a combination of jQuery and CSS menus. The DDR menu comes with a Treeview menu, Superfish menu, Accordion menu, Dropdown menu, Artisteer menu and a Mega-menu template.

It is also possible to build your own custom menu templates as well as add the menu to a page as a module or skin object.
